I'm trying to define dependent variables in maxima as follows:
depends(V[r],[r,\theta,z]);depends(v[%theta],[r,\theta,z]);depends(v[z],[r,\theta,z]);
And it throws me this error
depends: argument must be a symbol; found: Vr
I know that this means that I should not use variable name as dependent variable. But that is what exactly I need(to use variable name as dependent variable as well, as this will make it easy for me to Latex the equations).
Also, I have used vectors(V) indexed at p, theta, zero to denote a variable with subscript. This is a work around.
Is there any way around this?
